It’s “a new day” for a Celine Dion classic, with her 2002 hit “A New Day Has Come” getting reimagined by Swedish House Mafia‘s Sebastian Ingrosso.

His rework turns Dion’s belter into a brooding mainstage track that takes her “hush, now, I see a light in the sky, it’s almost blinding me. I can’t believe I’ve been touched by an angel with love” lyrics and layers them over over a darkly thumping production.

Built for festivals, this one’s gotten a crucial stamp of approval from Dion herself, who shared a video of herself solo dancing to the track in the studio, pumping her fists, shaking her hips, clapping her hands, doing a little shimmy and generally appearing to be feeling it deeply. Ingrosso’s “A New Day” is his first solo release on Swedish House Mafia’s new SUPERHUMAN label.

“Thank you Celine for letting me bring this into a new shape,” he wrote when sharing the song on Instagram, with the post getting comments of praise from fellow producers including Calvin Harris, Diplo, David Guetta, Adriatique and Anyma.

Released on March 11, 2002, Dion’s “A New Day Has Come” was the title track of her eighteenth studio album, marking her comeback after a hiatus during which she gave birth to her first child. The song, one of Dion’s 21 Hot 100 hits, reached No. 22 in May of 2002 and ultimately spent 20 in weeks on the chart.

Swedish House Mafia plays the second weekend of Tomorrowland 2025 today. Watch the festival’s livestream here.

Ra-ra-ah-ah-ah, roma-roma-ma, Gaga, ooh Labubu … Lady Gaga is getting in on a certain plushie craze.

In a whimsical TikTok posted Friday (July 25), the pop superstar filmed herself seemingly getting ready backstage for a concert, all dressed up in one of her Mayhem Ball tour outfits. With her hair teased into the shape of two bunny ears — similar to those sported by the fuzzy little monster keychains you keep seeing attached to everyone’s bags and purses — Gaga says in a silly, high-pitched voice, “I’m a Labubu!”

“Labubu!” she repeats before sticking her tongue out slightly at the camera.

For those not yet in on the trend, Labubus are collectible dolls sold by Chinese brand Pop Mart. With sharp teeth and goblin-like faces peeking out of their variously colored fur suits, the toys are basically just portable little monsters — an especially fitting product for Gaga, considering the name of her fanbase.

Mother Monster’s funny video comes shortly after she finished the second of three Mayhem shows at San Francisco’s Chase Center, at which she’ll play one more concert on July 26. The Grammy winner’s trek kicked off earlier in July with three performances in Las Vegas, and Gaga will continue touring through North America, Europe and Australia throughout the rest of 2025.

The trek comes in support of Gaga’s Mayhem album, which dropped this past May. Debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the project found the A Star Is Born actress returning to her dark dance-pop roots.

“Part of my personal mayhem is that it’s fun, and that’s why I keep doing it,” she told Billboard of the LP in a March interview. “That’s what makes it complicated — it is dark, and it pulls me away from myself, but it’s also the best time. It’s that point where you’re at the party, and you’re totally numbing out, and you’ve fully accepted that by the morning you are not going to feel well, but you’re fully in it.”

Kindle Kids in Unicorn Valley

Gad explained that his kids are voracious readers, able to breeze through multiple stories quickly. Who has the space or time to carry six different hardcovers on a road trip? Certainly not Gad. Thus, the beauty of the Kindle. “Having a device like this, which my wife and I joke, is like screen time we can actually get behind, is amazing. Kids sit in the back seat. When we’re on a road trip, they will either read or listen to their books.”

Don’t have a Kindle? Right now, Kindle Kids is available for $129.99 on Amazon in whimsical Ocean Explorer, Space Whale and Unicorn Valley designs. You can also grab the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Kids in Cyber City and Starfish style for $179.99, also on Amazon.

No matter how fast of a reader your little one is, you’ll never run out of reading material. “The kids curate their own selections of authors and books and share with each other … and on average … kids who are using a Kindle will read at least one hour a day that, to me, is like manna from heaven,” Gad says. “Incentivizing kids to read. I’m like, yes, yes, yes, Sign me up.”

I know you’re all dying to know: What does a busy celeb read on his time off on set? The answer might surprise you. “As of late, books that I’ve read that I’ve loved, James by Percival Everett,” the actor shares. “I’m obsessed with Madeleine Miller, who wrote both The Song of Achilles and Cersei … Erik Larson remains one of my favorite authors..In the Garden of Beasts or The Splendid and the Vile are great.”

Interestingly, Gad is also reading a lot of books about World War 2 and fascism to prep for his role in the upcoming project that takes place in that period. “None of these books I would call very entertaining, and none of these books are by choice,” Gad jokes.” As for music he’s currently bumping, Gad says he’s been going through a Kendrick Lamar phase: “My music is really defined right now by my children. So it’s lots of Sabrina (Carpenter), it’s lots of T-Swift, it’s lots of Kendrick, it’s lots of Beyonce … Charlie XCX. It’s it’s all the usual suspects.”

Tyler, the Creator is for the kids. After a fan requested that Tyler bring a clean version of Don’t Tap the Glass to streaming services, the Grammy-winning artist answered the call and came through on Friday (July 25).

The edited edition of Don’t Tap the Glass is now on Apple Music, marking the first time Tyler has released clean versions of his albums on streaming platforms, which is sure to make parents across the country happy.

A fan tweeted at Tyler on Tuesday (July 22), hoping to get a clean version to jam to the new album with his younger brother.

As the saying goes, you miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take, and this one swished through the net. “YO @tylerthecreator are you gonna put out a clean version? my lil brother tryna dance too,” the user wrote.

Tyler responded hours later, saying he was “on it.” Promises were made, and promises were delivered on Friday. “Done,” he followed up to show that the mission was complete. “DONT TAP THE GLASS clean version OUT NOW,” Tyler added on X.

Don’t Tap the Glass arrived on Monday (July 21), boasting 10 tracks with features from Pharrell, Yebba and Madison McFerrin.

While he dropped off his ninth studio album earlier this week, Tyler is still on the road in support of Chromakopia. The North American trek continues on Friday with a show in Toronto before returning to the U.S. for a pair of dates in New Jersey.

Kehlani‘s childhood idol is now one of her collaborators, with Mariah Carey tapping the R&B singer for new song “Sugar Sweet.”

And on the day of the track’s release Friday (July 25), Kehlani penned a sweet note gushing about how meaningful it was to work with someone who was so influential in their life growing up. “nobody speak to me i got a song with the one and only @mariahcarey,” she wrote, sharing a promotional photo for the song, which also features Shenseea.

“the earliest video of me singing and first song i ever learned was ‘Hero’ and everybody who knows me knows this is one of my heroes,” Kehlani continued of Carey. “this woman is the definition of an icon. to have given us so much, for DECADES & never fail to impress us through all the twists and turns music makes. i am so honored and immensely grateful. there truly are no words.”

The musician also added a kind shoutout to their other collaborator on “Sugar Sweet.” “@shenseea you’re an absolute BAD A– who is right on your way to legendary status yourself,” Kehlani concluded. “i’m happy man. #SUGARSWEET 🐑 LAMBS WE ARE SO UP.”

In the comments, Shenseea returned the love. “WE DID THAT!!!!” the Jamaican singer-songwriter wrote. “Thank you @kehlani I’m so happy for you especially, given your history!”

“Sugar Sweet” marks the second single fans have gotten from Carey’s upcoming album Here for It All, which will drop in September. Mimi has also shared the song “Type Dangerous” from the set, locking in her milestone 50th entry on the Billboard Hot 100 earlier this summer with the track.

Kehlani is also fresh off the release of a new track titled “Folded,” which dropped in June via Atlantic Records. The star’s last album, Crash, arrived in July last year and reached No. 25 on the Billboard 200.

See Kehlani’s post below.

Tyla has been sued by two collaborators on her hit 2023 song “Water,” who claim they’ve been cheated out of royalties by way of a “nefarious” scheme by a lead producer on the track.

Songwriters Olmo Zucca and Jackson LoMastro make the allegations in a Friday (July 25) lawsuit against the South African star (Tyla Seethal), British producer Sammy SoSo (Samuel Awuku) and Sony Music Entertainment, the owner of Tyla’s label Epic Records. Notably, the pair made the same allegations in a previous lawsuit against Tyla, SoSo and Sony this past March, but voluntarily dropped that case on Thursday (July 24) before re-filing on Friday, through a new attorney.

Zucca and LoMastro say that during a March 2023 recording session in Los Angeles, they worked with SoSo and fellow producer Rayo (Rayan El-Hussein Goufar) to make numerous audio recordings that were used on the final version of “Water.” The July 2023 track spent 29 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No. 7, and ultimately won a Grammy Award for best African music performance.

Zucca and LoMastro are credited as co-writers on “Water,” but not as producers. The pair allege that SoSo deliberately cut them out by contracting directly with Tyla “to take sole credit for production of the song,” and that he then lowballed Zucca and LoMastro with publishing royalties of only 10% each while giving himself 15%.

“Although plaintiffs tried for months to resolve the matter with Awuku, Awuku refused to cooperate and, instead, engaged in a pattern of deception designed to conceal his nefarious actions,” reads the legal complaint.

According to the lawsuit, SoSo fooled Zucca and LoMastro into signing a misleading contract that memorialized these unfair royalty rates. The complaint also cites a May 2024 meeting that Zucca had with Epic Records president Ezekiel Lewis, during which Lewis supposedly said SoSo had not informed the label about any co-producers on “Water.”

Zucca and LoMastro are now seeking, through their lawsuit,t to get producer credits on the track and change their royalty rate to 12.5%, both retroactively and going forward. They also want a producer fee.

“Because defendants have refused to recognize plaintiffs’ status as topline producers of the song, and have failed to pay plaintiffs all of the royalties they are owed from the song, plaintiffs have each suffered injury in fact,” says the complaint.

Zucca and LoMastro claim “Water” has generated more than $10 million in revenue since its release and will keep raking in hefty profits; “based on industry history, it is more than reasonable to expect the song to generate upwards of $50 million over an extended period of time,” says the lawsuit.

Reps for Tyla, SoSo and Sony did not immediately return requests for comment on the claims.

Diplo collaborated with BLACKPINK on their newest single, “JUMP,” and the producer shares how quickly the song came together, why he wanted to work with the sensational group, the stage presence the girls exude and more!

What do you think of “JUMP?” Let us know in the comments!

Katie Bain: What’s their audience? 

Diplo: It’s very young people. And young people like they want to f–king hear something that’s like theirs, and it feels crazy and exciting and new, and, you know, they want to jump up and rave. The music is a drug, you know, you want to like “Oooh, this is, this is a rush. This is new. This is exciting.” So, I mean, there’s that difference, and that makes you move. It makes your body move, you know, you have to. I think I showed that in the video in their own way. Like, this is, like, infectious, this beat. This is, you know, we’re infecting the whole crowd, like we’re like, gar.

One of them FaceTimed me from the studio because I didn’t know what was going on. I’d done the song. And then I had, like, a demo they sent me with some scratch on it. And then Jennie FaceTimed me, but it was Korea, so I couldn’t- I was like, on Bulgaria, I don’t know where I was like “What, why is she calling me?” And I realized that was because of the song, and we talked a little bit, but I couldn’t hear her, and then I didn’t hear again. So they finished cutting it, and they sent me all the files, and I worked on it, but it happened so quickly. 

How quickly? 

Probably heard the record in the end of May, beginning of May, and then fully finished with the video on July 11th like two and a half months, which is insane for a Korean record because they need so much lead up, but I think BLACKPINK is, you know, maybe one of the biggest acts of for sure, right now, maybe all time, as far as, like, reach and and people following them in whatever journey they want to go to so I think so it does take a lot of time to mobilize, but they also were on solo records. 

Keep watching for more!

Pusha T’s surgical summer continues after reuniting with Malice for the Clipse’s comeback album, Let God Sort Em Out, earlier in July.

Push recruited his “Only You Can Tell It” collaborator Wale for a DMV link-up on Friday (July 25) and bars from the Virginia native’s “Damage Control” verse caught fire on social media as they appeared to take aim at foes Drake and Birdman.

”The realest Birdman, I just cock-a-doodle-doo/ Doorstep, doorstep, I get it right through / Money talk, money talk, the wrist is light blue/ Sugarhill sweet, s—t is feeling type 2/ Bruised egos, man, you n—s might sue/ New Jack Ninos telling on the crew,” he raps.

The latter part referencing who “might sue” looks to poke at Drake and his lawsuit against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” diss track.

Drake and Pusha T’s feud reached a boiling point in 2018 when the duo exchanged diss tracks. The 6 God replied to Push’s “Infrared” snipes with “Duppy Freestyle,” while the Clipse rapper returned fire with “The Story of Adidon,” which revealed Drake had a son.

Pusha and Birdman’s issues date back to the 2000s when The Neptunes had a financial dispute with the Cash Money boss, with the producers claiming they weren’t paid for their work on “What Happened to That Boy” and “Grindin.’”

Pusha’s beef also bled to Lil Wayne, who took the “Mr. Me Too” video as shots in his direction. Push and The Neptunes didn’t appreciate Weezy making BAPE part of his aesthetic and rocking the purple zip-up jacket on the cover of VIBE in April 2006.

“I thought the whole ‘Mr. Me Too’ video was about me, to tell you the damn truth,” Wayne told Complex in 2006. “They think I want to be like them. I’m on a million-dollar bus going around the world charging people from $50,000 to $150,000 for verses, and I got 77 songs in magazines and I got a billion more. Do the math.”

The Don Cannon-produced “Damage Control” serves as a single set to land on Culture Jam Presents: Legend In My Hood, which is curated by NBA star Anthony Edwards and his brother, BDifferent.”
